Mulligans and lost balls etc

[el marko]

Just wondered how many off you play non handicap games and dont include a 2nd shot off the tee or a lost ball as a penalty?

Me and my playing partner dont have a handicap as we havnt joined a club yet and now as the scores are coming down we thought it might be time to adhere to the rules before we get ahead of ourselves.

The only difference from R&A rules that we do is we don't do stroke AND distance for an unexpected lost ball. You drop it 'nearby' for a one stroke penalty. If its clear you have lost one off the tee you are playing 3. if you've fired one into real heavy stuff your playing stroke and distance from where you stand.

It saves walking back to play a 'loss' you thought you might find. Other than that its pretty much as it should be played.
